Temperature control of a diffusive medium using the second generation CRONE control

This paper presents the design of the temperature control of a diffusive medium by using a unique robust controller for three different materials: aluminum, copper and iron. For the control-system design, the aluminum is selected as the material defining the nominal model. Then, the second generation CRONE control is used because the parametric uncertainty (due to the copper and the iron) leads to variations of open-loop gain. Finally, the responses in frequency-domain and in time-domain have been illustrated at the position of the actuator to show the stability degree robustness.
